Lochaber Free Presbyterian Church

Talbot settlers lived side by side with other British and American settlers in this new land. Freedom to practice their chosen religion was one of the draws to Upper Canada. This Free Presbyterian Church dates from the 1884s.

The simple appearance of Lochaber Church hides a complex and meaningful history. The founding members of Lochaber Church were originally members of the Presbyterian Church in East Williams. Under the leadership of Reverend Lachlin MacPherson, the church remained outside of two successive reunifications of the Presbyterian Church in 1861 and 1875.
